New iTunes 12, not recognizing device?

Just want to thank SirBen21.

It worked for me...

Thank you very much, Merci beaucoup, Muchas gracias Mr "SirBenn21".

You saved my life. I've spent 2 days searching for a solution to that problem. Apple itself is lost...

I'll have a long trip for about 8 hours in 2 days, and I was worried not to be able to use my iPad during this trip.
What would I do during this time without music, videos, lectures, and stuff?

Once again, thank you!

Thank you, this worked for me 😀

ITunes 12 will not recognize my Iphone 4. But strangely enough it will recognize an older Ipod nano. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem. I have updated my phone. The IOS 8 is not available for my Iphone 4. On a side note ITunes does recognize my 2nd Gen ipad. Hoping someone can help me with this problem

Thank you SirBen21, you solved the problem.

Hello can anyone help me?

I have experienced that the iPad will not be recognised in iTunes 12.01 - i'm using iPad 2 with iOS8 and a macbook with osx 10.7.5

I can't sync at all and have done the downgrading to previous iTunes and still no joy, un installed re installed, different cables, reboots. IM GOING CRAZY!!!! I REALLY NEED IT TO WORK AGAIN HELP !

Hello. I was informed that the updated iTunes was meant to be paired with the new OS X Yosemite. This is something I am also having to do. If you have already upgraded and the issue still occurs then I am also at a loss, especially since I currently have this issue with Mavericks OS on my iMac Computer.

Thank you SirBen21 this solved my problem 🙂

This worked for me! Thank you! : )

For anybody who is still having the problem even after uninstalling the 3 programs mentioned and reinstalling iTunes 12, try using a different USB cable.. I discovered this was my problem for both my iPhone 4 and 5

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions, however, none of them worked for me! iPhone 5s running 8.1 updated to iTunes 12.0.1.26 and, where previously there were no issues, iTunes couldn't detect my iPhone.

This did work though;

Reason: iPhone has set the the restrictions for applications

Solution: Settings>General>Restrictions>Disable Restrictions

One thing to note, the iPhone icon is now on the left hand side of the iTunes screen 🙂

Uninstalling and re-installing fixed my problem. Thank you SirBen21!

Yay !! Finally i can see my device. thank you.

Now itunes 12 messed up my CDrom drive. Back to fixing that.
